Tbh I'm inclined to think most of the Star Wars stuff that got in this year is extremely fair – the High Republic books are set hundreds of years before the prequels with an entirely different cast (except for Yoda) and there are basically no fics for them. The Visions episodes, too, have no character overlap with the rest of canon. Especially since Yuletide allowed rare pairings in its very first round, it seems very true to the spirit of Yuletide to allow isolated corners of broader megafandoms.

Should I, Jedi have made it? Perhaps not...but c'est la vie.
